Wedding Ceremonies at Anabel Taylor Hall

If you are affiliated with Cornell, there are some great options for planning a wedding ceremony and/or reception on campus. For chapel ceremonies, consider either the Sage Chapel or the Anabel Taylor Hall.

Anabel Taylor Hall is located alongside Campus Road and was constructed in 1953. It is a collegiate gothic building with grey stone walls and a high-pitched roof. There is a massive, beautiful organ inside–it takes up the entire rear of the chapel. Anabel Taylor Chapel also has a vintage Steinway upright piano which is what I played at a recent ceremony there. The piano is near the altar which can be helpful as I also accompanied 2 guest vocalists for the ceremony. And since one of the vocalists was a young boy, the organ might have been too loud for the guests to hear the child sing–and he sounded angelic!

"...he played the grand piano for the ceremony and the cocktail hour and then DJ'd for the reception. I can't explain enough how perfect all the selections, timing and overall execution was...He read the crowd, kept the party alive when we were up dancing, accompanied the cocktail hour with perfect mood-setting selections, and the perfect build up during the ceremony. Can’t wait to book him for another event – he “gets” it!"~Mara & Matt via WeddingWire

"I had so many people at the wedding tell me how wonderful the music was. Everyone, young and old was up dancing the entire reception. He seamlessly mixed all the songs I had requested with requests from guests and made it such an amazing day...I honestly can’t say enough nice things about Andrew and would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone planning a special event."

Hi Andrew,
The wedding was everything we could have possibly hoped for! We had such a blast!

We just wanted to drop you a quick note and say that we really appreciated your hard work – and staying super late. The music was awesome! We have never danced so hard and long in our lives. As one friend told us the next day, “I kept trying to go sit down and rest but then he put on another perfect song and I just couldn’t physically leave the dance floor!”.
